We’re really very sad to announce that ‘The Voice’ isn’t quite as authentic as many would want to believe, but don’t take it from us. Rock singer Adam Wiener claimed on Facebook that he was approached by the show, but eventually chose to decline their offer to participate.
He said the show not only chooses their performers but also picks their songs and music styles. How upsetting! But once again, fake.
Divorce Court
Speaking of reality shows with terrible ideas behind them, how about a show that uses marital disputes for ratings? 'Divorce Court' revolves around married couples that need to come to a resolution around their divorce.
One mother claimed that her daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend were hired to act and basically fake a marriage story on the show. High ratings yet highly fake.
The Real Housewives
There was a lot of speculation over the years whether 'The Real Housewives' was scripted or not. The debate around the authenticity of the show came to an end when Teresa Giudice, one of its stars, swore in court under oath that it was fake.
The star claimed that everything, from the meetings to the confrontations, is all planned in advance by the production. That’s the real fake housewives for ya!
Vanderpump Rules
Lisa Vanderpump was one of the biggest stars of 'The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills', and got her chance for a spin-off with 'Vanderpump Rules'. In the show, she and her staff are followed as they try to manage her restaurant, SUR.
A fan of the show noticed that one of the characters was repeatedly shown with and without her necklace during a scene, which pointed to the fact that it was shot several times and only later pieced together. Busted! And fake.
Teen Mom
MTV is known for having a host of mostly fake reality TV shows, and 'Teen Mom' basically falls under the same category. The show revolves around young girls who have gotten pregnant before age 18 and their journeys through motherhood.
While all the arrests, breakups, and other issues shown were real, many of the dramatic conversations were edited to seem a lot harsher than they actually were. Irresponsibly fake.
